Soul Sutras: South Asian Sisterhood & Tackling Taboo with Sangeeta Pillai

Helloooo, and welcome to Season 8 of Mads World! You're about to listen to Soul Sutras: South Asian Sisterhood & Tackling Taboo with Sangeeta Pillai!

This week I am joined by podcaster, activist, writer and speaker, Sangeeta Pillai. Sangeeta is the founder of the South Asian feminist network Soul Sutras, which is all about tackling taboos within the culture. She’s the creator of Masala Podcast, seen as one of the top feminist podcasts in the UK, featuring truly diverse experiences and voices. Sangeeta is a 5 times winner at the British Podcast Awards 2020, 2021 & 2022, as well as winner at the Audio Production Awards 2022.

She is a winner at Spotify SoundUp 2018 and was also nominated “change-maker” at the Visionary Awards 2022. Masala Podcast & Sangeeta have been featured on BBC Radio, The Guardian, The Observer, Evening Standard, Cosmopolitan, Stylist, Eastern Eye, Huffington Post, BBC Sounds, Brown Girl Magazine, Women’s Health Austria, Deccan Herald India & more. Sangeeta is also the creator of the Masala Monologues series of writing workshops and theatre shows in the UK & the US.

In this episode, we chat about Sangeeta’s funniest date story, her influences as a feminist, how she finds the strength to view taboo subjects in a critical way, where the stigma and shame might stem from in South Asian communities, the importance of creating safe spaces and much more.
